    The Microsoft 365 Core Design Team in Oslo is looking for a passionate and self-motivated Studio Manager to help shape the future of intelligence-driven experiences across the Microsoft ecosystem. Our primary charters revolve around pro-active content discovery, integrated people profiles, and universal Search & Assistant experiences which are woven into the fabric of core Microsoft 365 products. You’ll work on products that have daily impact on hundreds of millions of people across the world.

    The Studio Manager will report to our Design Director in Redmond.

You will be able to spend time to learn and grow within the team and by accessing Microsoft’s vibrant global community of designers and researchers.

    Responsibilities

    • Help develop and facilitate key aspects of the studio workflow: rhythm of business, ways of working, and key date management.
    • Contribute to creating a valued and respected design practice across our studio that supports inclusivity across the team.
    • Identify issues, barriers, gaps, and opportunities to improve design quality and processes across the entire team and to create cohesion and efficiencies among the various workgroups.
    • Help plan, schedule, and facilitate design sprints and working sessions that support strategic and creative thinking.
    • Organize social and learning events that boost team spirit and growth-mindset.

    • Excellent communication and networking skills. The working language is English.
    • Highly process-focused mindset with the ability to drive the roadmap with internal and external teams.
    • Able to be flexible in managing own time due to occasional late meetings.
